now i look back and laugh... i'm less than 1/2 his age and probably make at least 2x what he did at the time. so he can take the closest available large kitchen utensil and shove it up his *** as far as i'm concerned
Your experience reminds me of my friend's father who was terminated without given reason because the business quoted "employed at will." He got a measly severance. Turns out the business ended up going through his work computer and finding several of his personal projects which ended up as their new products. You can only imagine how angry he must have been.
